Support Breast Cancer Awareness – Buy PINK Medical Products!

Pink is now the official color of Fall. Fine by me, as long as the awareness of breast cancer and the huge outpouring of charity in October helps save lives. Allegro sells several products that support breast cancer research and breast charities with donations for every product purchased. If you are in the market for one of these products, for you or a friend, now is the time to buy – and buy pink.

Not in the market for one of these products? Do me a favor and support the cause however you can. Even if you can’t afford to make a donation, wear pink and perhaps it will spur someone to do their self-breast exam. Verbally remind your lady friends and family to get checked. And you… you do it too! It could be that easy to save a life through early detection.

My dear friend Laura starts chemo tomorrow, on her birthday of all days. This is following a recent lumpectomy. She’s 47 years old and seems to be taking it all in stride, recovering with the help of family and friends. We’ll be walking for her on Sunday in the Phoenix Race for the Cure. Please think good thoughts for her continued strength and for everyone you know who is fighting this terrible disease. If you have a story to share, please feel free to reply to this post.
